El Cordova Hotel on Coronado Island

The location of the hotel was great, not beach front, but close to the beach and walking distance to many restaurants and shops. The hotel advertised in their binders (in our room) that hotel guests were eligible for discounts at local restaurants and the San Diego zoo - when I asked about the discounted zoo tickets at the front desk, I was told that there were none and when we went to restaurants and mentioned these discounts, they were unaware of these. The temperature controls were off in our rooms. We turned on the heat and cold air still came through the vents in our kitchen and living room area. Windows are old and need to be replaced - we heard street noise and people at all hours. For the most part, the room was fairly clean but dishes and silverware had crumbs on them. Second bathroom toilet and sink were clogged multiple times. They came to resolve the issue but resolution was only temporary.

The location is great as the “base” for walking and exploring. The noise of the restaurant below was NOT pleasant with all the sounds of the kitchen and what seemed like constant table sliding. Inside the room, essentially no hot water. Luke warm would be a bit of a stretch as well. I ran the tub for 20 minutes thinking maybe it just needed to come from across the property. I don’t want to even get into the parking situation but if you go you should know there is not any. 40$/night for the BoA building which is a 3-5 minute walk.

You definitely pay for the location, paying to be across from the beach and walking distance to everything. Highly recommend pay for their parking garage. Disappointed on the quality of the rooms. Shower was dirty with terrible water pressure. Brought it up to management at check out and they then mentioned it was a problem for the whole hotel. Room needs a deep clean. Bed was clean and comfortable. Great ac. Room does have a mini fridge which is not in the description. Cleaning on request, not daily. Paid for a king bed but realized too late that we received a room with a queen bed. We would say overall it was average. Not the worst. Not the best.

Nice place in the best location. Very spacious! Good value! Our unit had 2 bedrooms with en suite a formal dining and living room and kitchen. We will come back!!

Went to Coronado to experience a new Christmas. El Cordova is the perfect location and love the rooms with the Mexican motif.

It was a great location! The rooms were small and noisy. The shower water pressure was terrible!! The patio areas could've used a little sprucing up since it was a holiday week.

Beautiful, place! Hotel is super cute, room was great, spanish tile bathroom, comfy bed. Right across from the Hotel Del. Would definitely stay again

We did not like our experience at the Hotel at all and would not come back again. The parking was a total rip off and very inconvenient. We were charges $40 and there weren’t any parking spaces and it was completely off site and we had to move our car before our hotel reservation was over because we were forced to park in the Bank of America parking lot. The bathroom was in total disrepair and we didn’t like the shampoo soaps and lotions provided. The walls were so thin I heard the person in the next rooms alarm going off and her total conversation. For the price it was a total rip off. We went there to enjoy Coronado and we ended up just leaving in the morning.

Local parking is scarce. Their offer for 40 off site parking is a block away. To difficult to unload and trek. Rooms are confusing. Noise from nearby restaurants is constant. Tile missing in bathroom and hat water was limited.

Overall- Awesome experience! Only one thing- the beds and or sheets seemed to cause us itching and what looked like bug bites. Please check if the sheets; bed may have bed mites;bugs.
